Dierks Bentley should keep one eye open on his Sounds of Summer Tour, because his tourmates Kip Moore and Canaan Smith have some ideas of how to prank him.
Kip has already retaliated, after Dierks forced them into his annual polar jump in January, by spraying graffiti on his beloved Big White truck and putting a goat in the bed of the vehicle. So, he’s kind of laying low for the time being. However, he does warn Dierks, he will come after him if he tries to pull something else. “If he slips up and gets me, I’m just gonna one-up him, so the best thing he can do is just let the whole thing go.”
Canaan, though, is deviously planning on something to get Dierks back. “. I have ideas, ideas churning in my head. But as an example of a recent prank, I got my band on April Fool’s Day. I told them I wanted to start this tradition right before we would go on stage, let’s eat a lucky Oreo,” says Canaan. “I snuck out to the bus, and I replaced all the cream in the Oreos with toothpaste, with minty white toothpaste, and strategically replaced them perfectly back in the package, so that they would just have no clue what was about to hit them.”
The next stop on the Sounds of Summer Tour is June 18th in Maryland Heights, Missouri.

“I’m laying off of [Dierks]. I got a feeling that he’s got it coming for me, so I need to kind of chill out. But if he does, if he slips up and gets me, I’m just gonna one-up him, so the best thing he can do is just let the whole thing go.”

“I can’t give away my secrets. I have ideas, ideas churning in my head. But as an example of a recent prank, I got my band on April Fool’s Day. I told them I wanted to start this tradition right before we would go on stage, let’s eat a lucky Oreo. That was my idea. Why an Oreo? You’ll see why. But they didn’t know why. I said, ‘Let’s eat a lucky Oreo.’ I even primed it earlier in the day to make them think there was nothing wrong with these Oreos. I bought the Oreos earlier in the day. I’m like, ‘Hey! Here’s the idea guys. Let’s eat Oreos tonight.’ We’re all just eating out of this box of Oreos. But then later on, I snuck out to the bus, and I replaced all the cream in the Oreos with toothpaste, with minty white toothpaste, and strategically replaced them perfectly back in the package, so that they would just have no clue what was about to hit them. Right before we went onstage, I said something about, ‘Alright this is our first night, new tradition, love you boys, let’s do this! Here’s your Oreo.’ Boom. Pop it. Right away, one of ‘em called me an [beep] hole and went and threw up in the trash can. They’re all just like pissed, and now they’re threatening to get me back. But, yeah, I love that kind of stuff.”
